Shaq Tingzhans teammates: The leader should do this. I have a lot of quarrels with Kobe Bryant.

Ive been doing all these things (criticizing my teammates), or why do you think Ive been in conflict with Kobe? ONeill said, Yes, thats what you should do. If you dont, Ill call you names and criticize you.

In a recent post-match interview, LeBron publicly criticized his teammates for not being distracted by the outside world, but focusing on the stadium, otherwise he would not have to stay on the team.

ONeill went on to explain that LeBron was trying to motivate his teammates with tactics. In his opinion, if LeBrons teammates were really angry, they would play harder on the pitch.

Although ONeill believes its a smart strategy, it doesnt seem to fit in with the Lakers this year. After LeBron publicly expressed his discontent, the Lakers rebounded to defeat the Pelicans, but recently they suffered two defeats in a row. After losing to the bottom of the Western Suns, the teams record has been 30-33, and the hope of entering the playoffs has been very slim. In ONeills opinion, LeBrons words are not malicious, because he is very smart, ONeill agrees very much that if you dont want to be traded, then you have to stand up in the game. Whether or not the Lakers can play in the playoffs, it is certain that their lineup will change dramatically next season. Many stars will enter the free market this summer, and Daviss trade will resume, when the Lakers will be very active. Its just that the way LeBron inspires his teammates now looks like a long soap opera. Source: Netease Sports Author: Nanyangyu Responsible Editor: Yang Jiankun_NS4215
